Glenglassaugh 12 Year Old - 70cl
From one of Scotland's most dramatic coastal distillery revivals β and one of the most characterful and underrated Highland single malts available to buy online in Singapore. Glenglassaugh was founded in 1875 in the small fishing village of Portsoy on the Aberdeenshire coast, and its position directly on the North Sea has long given its spirit a distinctive coastal character that sets it apart from inland Highland distilleries. After decades of silence β the distillery was mothballed in 1986 β Glenglassaugh was spectacularly reopened in 2008 and has been producing consistently impressive spirit ever since, now under the ownership of Brown-Forman. The 12 Year Old is the core expression β matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and sherry casks and , non-chill filtered, natural colour β a generous, fruit-forward, and distinctly coastal Highland single malt with a satisfying richness and depth.
